Co-hosts of ABC’s "The View" on Friday feuded over how the Democratic Party should change its game plan after losing male voters. After their decisive defeat in November, Democrats are still figuring out how they should change their strategy and move forward as a party. The New York Times recently published a report claiming that Democrats are spending $20 million on a study called "Speaking with American Men: A Strategic Plan." The study is a project to "study the syntax, language and content that gains attention and virality in these spaces" of male voters. Co-host Joy Behar scoffed at the...

“The View” co-host Joy Behar said Wednesday that there could be “backlash” against the Republican Party as the Trump Justice Department has ordered prosecutors to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. “He’s very popular, this guy, there could be a backlash,” she said. “All I’m saying is, politically, it could be a backlash against Republicans to give him the death penalty.” Attorney General Pam Bondi said on Tuesday that Thompson’s murder was “a premeditated, cold-blooded assassination that shocked America.” “After careful consideration, I have directed federal prosecutors to seek the...

For years now The View has been a rather successful show on ABC, why, I’m not sure as I fail to see the appeal. The original idea, via the show’s creator, Barbara Walters, was for a panel of women to discuss the issues of the day, great idea in concept. The problem is that The View was always a little bit slanted to the left, but if you run the show, you can do as you please, provided the show generates a healthy viewership, which in turn pulls in the big ad money. The View won awards for the show,...

The liberals are everything they accuse conservatives of being. During the Thursday edition of ABC’s The View, co-host Joy Behar went on an anti-immigrant tirade directed at billionaire Elon Musk. She viciously attacked him for being born in South Africa – something he had no choice in, accused him – without evidence – of being “pro-apartheid,” a “foreign agent” and “enemy of the United States,” and when she finally was told he was a naturalized citizen, she scoffed and wondered if he came in illegally. And in an apparent attempt at heading off a possible defamation suit, she begged Musk...

The View co-host Joy Behar apologized to Elon Musk live on-air after calling him 'pro-apartheid.' Behar made the claim during a rant on Thursday's show against the South African billionaire and his relationship with President Donald Trump. 'The guy was not born in this country, who was born under apartheid in South Africa,' she said, later calling Musk a 'foreigner' and 'a foreign agent.' 'So, [he] has that mentality going on. He was pro-apartheid, as I understand it.' After a commercial break, Behar retracted the comment and admitted that she had no evidence of it being a true. 'Now I'm...

The confirmations of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to HHS and Tulsi Gabbard to DNI sent ABC News’s Joy Behar over the edge during Friday’s edition of The View. She became so unhinged that she cooked up an unfounded conspiracy theory that the reason so many GOP lawmakers had voted to confirm President Trump’s nominees was because he was threatening to kill their them and their families. And she was serious about it.

Friday on ABC’s “The View,” Joy Behar told her co-hosts that the 2024 presidential election was “not normal” and President-elect Donald Trump was not a normal person. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said, “So I have no problem with Michelle Obama not going. I think it’s critical that all former presidents and vice presidents attend. I think it signals to the world that despite a very tumultuous political season that America moves forward and we’re going to have a safe and secure transfer of power despite Donald Trump in 2020 and what he did after January 6th but as spouse she...

Democrat Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) cornered one of the ladies of The View on Thursday after he stunned co-host Joy Behar by pointing out the political warfare against President-elect Donald Trump. "Those kinds of charges would have never been brought unless one side realized that they could weaponize that," Fetterman said. The pardon of Hunter Biden was warranted because he believes it was politically motivated, the senator claimed. Still, he also thinks the New York case against Trump was politically motivated. However, Fetterman chose the worst possible person to say such words to. Behar’s reaction was so intense; it was...

Joy Behar was the first to respond to the story, saying, “It kind of shows you there’s no such thing as karma, doesn’t it? It’s like the Easter Bunny and affordable housing. It doesn’t exist.” Behar then took a more serious tone and said, “I feel like eventually we will get him out, but it’s going to take a while, and let’s hope there’s not too much damage that he does… I mean, the idea that Kamala Harris says to the American people, ‘I’m going to help you buy a house,’ that did not resonate as much as, ‘They’re eating...

The stunning victory of Donald Trump has establishment media desperately reassessing their “Abandon all principles to elect Democrats” strategy. It’s a start. ABC News, which tried to rig the presidential debate it hosted by fact-checking Trump while repeatedly letting Kamala Harris slide, is in panic mode post-Nov. 5. Top brass are trying to bring in more conservative voices — and action item No. 1 is to balance out the lefty insanity spouted by hosts on its popular daytime show “The View.” These include Whoopi Goldberg blaming inflation on grocery store owners, whom she called “pigs,” and woke racist Sunny Hostin...

Sara Haines told her co-host Friday on ABC’s “The View” that “not everyone who voted” for President-elect Donald Trump was racist and misogynist. Partial transcript as follows: HAINES: We need to be introspective. If we voted for Kamala Harris, we need to say what didn’t resonate with the voters. You know what didn’t resonate with the voters when they were saying we don’t feel safe and the left focus on defund the police and bail reform. When they were focused on renaming schools, there were people saying, “Hey, students are destroying colleges. I paid for that. I sent them there....

“The View” hosts — Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro, Joy Behar and Alyssa Farah Griffin — came together on the Nov. 6 episode of the ABC talk show to react to Donald Trump‘s victory over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. All six women voted for Harris, even outspoken Republican and former Trump aide Griffin. “So what happened last night?” Goldberg asked her co-hosts while never uttering Trump’s name. She later telling them: “He’s the president. I’m still not going to say his name. That’s not going to change.” “I’m profoundly disturbed,” Hostin said about the...

Former Governor Chris Christie returned to The View, offering sharp criticism of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and ridiculing his brain worm. "RFK Jr. doesn't know a third of what he thinks he knows, and the third that he does know is usually not right," Christie said. "Well he has that brain worm," Joy Behar said. And Christie quipped back, "His brain worm would get its own protective detail."

After President Joe Biden's appearance on The View, the hosts took a moment to reflect on his character and the kind exchanges they shared. Co-host Joy Behar connected warmly with the president, leaning in close and holding his hand as they spoke. She later described her excitement about his visit, commenting: "It was exciting. It really was. It was great to have him here. He's kissy, he's like an affectionate guy. I love that about him."

“The View” co-host Joy Behar is taking issue with former President Donald Trump claiming God was on his side.During his speech accepting the Republican presidential nomination, Trump stated it was because of God he was able to stand on the stage after a gunman tried to kill him at a rally. (snip) “What about Corey… what’s his name? Uh… Comperatore. The fireman who also died [at the rally],” Behar continued. “Oh God was watching me and not them? There’s something very disturbing about that.”

Joy Behar had a mini meltdown on The View over the rise of Donald Trump in the aftermath of the results of the 2024 Iowa caucus, which suggest that the former president is on track to become the Republican nominee in the November election. "This is what the 5 percent voted for," Behar said on Tuesday's episode, referencing the estimated percentage of the total Iowa voting base that turned out to cast ballots in the important Republican primary, and led to Trump's winning roughly 50 percent of the total vote. "They voted for a guy who, today, had to come...

The View hosts Joy Behar and Ana Navarro reacted to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump by blaming white men, with Navarro asserting, “It wasn’t a drag queen, it wasn’t an immigrant.”Yes, really.Leftists have been reeling since the shocking incident, trying to find all manner of bizarre coping mechanisms.Some ludicrously suggested the entire event was stage managed by Trump himself, while others seized on the fact that the shooter was a registered Republican, despite him donating to left-wing causes and literally trying to assassinate Trump.Navarro, who has been suffering from a severe bout of Trump Derangement Syndrome for nearly a...

In what could be the biggest moment of the campaign so far, Donald Trump and Joe Biden are set to square off in their first debate on Thursday. After years of speculation and doubt about whether such a meeting would take place, the current president proposed a highly controlled head-to-head on CNN featuring Jake Tapper and Dana Bash as moderators. With that said, the intellectual titans of 'The View' have a warning for Trump: Don't go after Hunter Biden. The discussion started with Joy Behar worrying that any mention of Biden's now-convicted felon son would be a "trigger point" and...

It was a full on View-mergency in the aftermath of Donald Trump's conviction on 34 felony counts, as all six cohosts — yes, including Whoopi Goldberg coming in on her day off — joined the Hot Topics table to break down the historic moment. A Manhattan jury found Trump guilty Thursday on all counts at the end of a long trial revolving around a scheme to fraudulently impact the 2016 election with hush-money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels after the pair engaged in a sexual relationship. Naturally, Joy Behar celebrated the occasion by revealing that she got "so...

The View hosts have reacted to the criminal conviction of former president Donald Trump - which excited Joy Behar so much that she wet herself. While the ladies of The View don't usually film the show live on Fridays, they all gathered today to react to the Republican's guilty verdict in his Manhattan hush money trial. 'I was at Costco buying 10 boxes of Keurig coffee,' Joy shared with viewers.
